Most accelerators help their companies raise about a third of that a.mount during the Acceleration period. The 100K certainly helped source the best in class with over 800 applicants I hear and having Kleiner Perkins as a backer is a great way to get a funding campaign done. Our first “class” raised 6.2M so far, but that is 4 months later. Then again, we aren’t an accelerator, we are just a crowdfunding platform – raising significant rounds, getting hundreds of new customers, press, and key partnerships are just side benefits for our companies.

The time has certainly arrived for Digital Health. Thanks for reporting on it Eliza & GigaOM!
